Hey, @alexbenzer.com, we filled in the form and never heard anything back. Has this program wrapped up? We're in the process of writing an article for our October issue describing our community-building experience with @bsky.app to date and want to be completely fair to all concerned.

Overall App *Edit button * Better search options. Seriously I can search an active fandom, and get the same results every day... * Don't "parental control" by default. Or at least make it more obvious where to turn off "rated G mode" * Be upfront about Ai. * Ai is horrible!!!

The biggest challenge is shifting the user perception from "this is just a Twitter clone" to "this is an open protocol with composable spaces." Communities on AT Protocol need more than just group chats -they need protocol-level features like shared custom feeds and decentralized moderation rules.

No interest whatsoever. You continue to make it very difficult to be contacted for almost anything. It's quite mysterious just who runs this platform, and I lose more confidence in it every day. Wish there was an alternative.

Excuse my paranoia and luddite ways but... I'm wondering if I'll end up on tRump's enemy list if I fill out this little questionaire.

Just leave it alone. Why do companies always feel they need to make changes to an app users are enjoying? You're going to end up ruining it for people like me, aren't you?

Trying to copy Reddit, Facebook, Twitter is the wrong path. Keep it simple, add edit function and let it grow. Every step since new CEO has been baby steps toward impending monetization and revenue generation.

Would be nice if they had ANY interest in allowing us to continue our timeline from where we left it last like prime twitter instead of opening the app and being forced to reverse chronological read through everything, come on cuuuhhh read the room cuh, say it ain't so cuh
